Chapter 3

"Yep! For this mission you also have to transfer schools!"

Oh this day couldn't get any worse could it?! I stood up and slammed my hands down on the table.

"What?!"

My uncle jumped back a little at my outburst. He sighed seeing the shocked expression on my face.

"Mikan I know that this is hard for you but you have to understand. The only way we will be able to fight against the AAO is by having you fight them! I don't like this as much as you do! Do you think I want to send my niece into danger and have her leave her friends?!"

My eyes softened when I heard this. So uncle doesn't like this either? I can't believe how selfish I'm being. I have to think about the academy and my friends first. This is the only way to keep them safe. I have to do this!

I looked back up at my uncle with a serious look. His eyes widened seeing my serious look.

"I'll do it. As long as I can save everyone and protect the school then I'll do it."

My uncle smiled seeing me cooperate with him. He walked towards me and stopped in front of me. He placed his hand on top of my head. He started to rub my head.

"Your really brave aren't you? I know that it's going to be hard Mikan but I know that you can do it."

My eyes started to water hearing uncles words. I hugged my uncle and the tears started to roll down my face. My uncle hugged me back. He continued to pat and rub my head. After a couple of minutes I let go of my uncle and smiled up at him. He smiled back down at me.

"Thank you Mikan for doing this. You don't know how grateful I am."

I chuckled hearing this.

"It was no problem uncle. I want to protect everyone and if this is the way to do it then I'll do it."

My uncle continued to smile at me.

"I know. Now go back to class. I'll inform the teacher on why you weren't there."

I nodded my head. I turned around and headed towards the door. I stopped in front of the door and put my hand on the doorknob.

"Oh, and Mikan!"

I turned back around to look at my uncle. He still had a smile on his face.

"It's okay to let your friends know. But do it in secret okay?"

I nodded my head yes. I turned back around and opened the door. I walked out and started to head towards the classroom. I heard the door close behind me. I continued to walk towards the classroom. As I was walking I thought back to uncles words.

"Their magic is called "Guardian Character's" or "would-be selves". Only some kids have it. You can only have it if you want to change your personality or wish to become someone else."

I stopped walking. I leaned against the wall and looked up at the ceiling.

"Would-be selves huh?" I thought. I just leaned on the wall for a few minutes thinking about that.

"Would be nice to have a Guardian Character. To bad that'll never happen"

I got off the wall and continued to walk towards my classroom. Little had I known how wrong my thought was.

I continued to walk for another 6 minutes until I reached the classroom doors. I sighed and breathed in. I slid open the classroom doors and immediately all eyes turned towards me. I ignored them and walked towards my seat. I saw Natsume and Ruka-pyon there. I stopped at my seat and sat down. I felt a hand grab mine under the table and hold it tightly. I didn't have to look to know that it was Natsume who was holding my hand. I felt him shift beside me.

"So what happened?"

I turned my heads towards him and looked at him for a few seconds. I leaned my head forwards and kissed him. As soon as I felt him respond I pulled back. I winked at him and smiled.

"Later okay?"

Natsume continued to look at me for a couple of minutes before turning his head to look at the board. Underneath the table he squeezed my hand telling me yes. I turned my heads towards the board and listened to the lesson.

It felt like hours before the bell rang signaling that school was over. The kids started to pour out of the classroom while a couple stayed behind. I felt Natsume stand up and pull me up. I stood up and before I knew it I heard the oh-so familiar "Baka" before I was shot into a wall. I slid down the wall painfully. I am surprised that none of my bones have broke. I felt someone rush to my side and I looked up and saw Inchou. He had a worried look on his face.

"Mikan-chan, are you okay?!"

I smiled at Inchou's concern. I stood up and brushed myself off.

"I'm fine Inchou! Just look at me, I'm 1,000 % okay!" I smiled down at Inchou to show that I was okay. He smiled back up at me seeing that I was fine. He stood up.

"That's great! I'm surprised that you don't have to go to the hospital with the number of "Baka" punches you've received!"

I half smiled at that.

"I guess."

I was about to say something else when I heard footsteps approaching. I turned my head and saw that it was Hotaru.

"You really are an idiot aren't you."

I fumed over her calling me an idiot.

"Geez Hotaru, I'm not an idiot! You're so mean!"

She just stared at me with an expressionless face.

"Well it's true."

I felt like exploding right then and there.

"Geez Hotaru, your so mean!"

I pouted and crossed my arms. I turned away from Hotaru so my back was facing her.

"Whatever. Any way's Mikan, what did you get called to the principles office for?"

My whole body froze when I heard that. I had wanted to avoid telling them so soon.

"Yeah, what did you get called for Mikan-chan?"

I turned around hearing that. I saw Anna, Nonoko, Koko, Kitsune, Permy, and Inchou. They were standing next to Hotaru. I saw that Natsume and Ruka-pyon were still by their seats. All of their eyes were on me. I sighed. I guess now's the right time to tell them.

"Okay, okay I'll tell you. But not here. At the Sakura tree."

They looked at me weird but nodded their heads yes. We all exited the classroom and headed towards the Sakura tree. It looked deserted as usual. We all sat down when we reached the Sakura tree. I was sitting in Natsume's lap with his arms around my waist while everyone scattered around me and Natsume. They all sat there waiting for me to tell them. I sighed. Here goes nothing.

"The reason I was called to the principle's office was that... I'm being sent on a mission."

I heard gasp's as soon as I finished talking. I felt Natsume's grip tighten around my waist. I sighed just knowing how this was going to end.

"What did you say?"

I looked and saw that it was Anna who asked me that. She had a shocked look on her face. As well as everyone.

"I'm being sent on a mission. But it's not any ordinary mission."

A confused look came upon everyone's face.

"I'm being sent on an undercover mission. Here's what happened."

I told them the whole conversation that went on between me and my uncle about the mission. They had an even more shocked look on their face when I told them about Guardian Character's. They also couldn't believe that there was some people who also had magical powers. After about 5 or 6 minutes I was finished telling them everything. During the whole time I felt Natsume's grip tighten so much that I think he would've suffocated me. They all looked like they were gonna cry when they found out that I had to leave. I still didn't know how long I would be gone but I knew that I wouldn't be back at the academy any time soon.

"So... your really leaving?"

This time it was Nonoko who asked me. I nodded my head slowly. I heard her whimper.

"N-No way."

My heart broke at her and everyone's sad face's. This is why I wanted to avoid telling them. "So you were just gonna wait till the day you left to tell them?!" I told myself. I shook my head. I wouldn't do that. They deserve to know. They're my friends.

"So what if you're leaving."

All eyes shot to Permy. She was standing up and had her arms crossed. She had an annoyed look on her face.

"Just because you're leaving for a while, doesn't mean that we wont ever see you again!"

My eyes widened at this.

"Permy"

Permy looked at me with an annoyed look.

"Weren't you the one who said that no matter what happens, our friendship will never die?!"

My eyes were completely wide open at this. She was right, I did say that. And here I am making it seem like our friendship has to end just because I'm leaving. I'm such a horrible friend. I heard footsteps approaching and I looked and saw that Permy was now standing in front of me. She held out her arm with her hand formed into a fist. I looked up at her. She had a smile on her face.

"No matter what, our friendship will never die.

"She's right."

I turned my head and saw that Anna and Nonoko were standing up. They walked towards me and stopped in front of me like Permy. They held out their arms with their hands also formed into a fist. They also had smiles on their faces.

"No matter what, our friendship will never die."

Tears started to form in my eyes. I heard more footsteps approaching and I turned my head and saw that Inchou, Koko, Ruka-pyon, and Kitsune were walking towards us. They stopped in front of me and held out their arms with their hands formed into a fist.

"No matter what, our friendship will never die."

The tears had started to roll down my cheeks. I smiled. That's right. No matter what happens, our friendship will never die.

I felt one of Natsume's arms move. I saw that he had held it out with his hand formed into a fist. I turned me head towards Natsume and saw that he had one of his rare smile's on his face.

"No matter what, our friendship will never die."

I looked back towards everyone and saw that they all had smile's on their faces. I looked at their arms and saw that it made a circle. The circle wasn't complete because there was one arm missing from it. ...Mine. I wiped my tears and held out my arm with my hand formed into a fist. I looked up at everyone and nodded. We all shouted out our motto.

"No matter what, our friendship will never die!"
